An Atlanta special says: At the
emphatic instance of the citizens of
Rome, Ca, bluff old Judge Lynch will
convene midnight session of his ex-
traordinary court and affirm a lively
rule on the privilege Of the populace
to informally gibbet brutal negro
named johnson. The involuntary
candidate for such disposition is a
lieutenant in the Salvation army bar
racks at that place. The negro on
Wednesday afternoon, at the resi-
.dence of man named McGinnis, in
Forestville, succeeded in enticing Nc
Ginnis' pretty little seyen-year old
daughter to clump of woods near
the house. He persuaded her to ac-
company him on the pretext of secur-
ing for her some pretty birds,
When they got we'll into the woods
the brute took advantage of her help
lessness. The child returned home
later and informed her parents of her
experience. Immediately party
was organized to capture the negro.
When the officers visited the Saliva
ton army, to their surprise they found
him kneeling on the platform and
praying alone. They permitted him
to conclude his solemn entreaty, and
then conducted him to Jail. When
the people heard OF the arrest they
congregated on the principal street
anu loudly discussed his immediate
lynching. No definite steps were
taken in that direction, as the excited
party was without leader. The sub
ject of hanging the prisoner has asi
tated the people since, and yesterday
a meeting Of citizens was held, a
which it was decided to take the pris
oner out last night in the presence o
his victim and hang him.

THE GALLON CLAUSE.
An Important Decision for Local Op.
tiOnists.

The Supreme court yesterday over
ruled the motion for leave to file petit
tion in error to the Superior court of
Cincinnati in the case of A. Senior &
Son v. Frank Rattermau, treasurer of
Hamilton county. This decision virtu-
ally disposes of the controversy in re-
gard TO the gallon clause of the Dow
law, under which brewers, distilleIs and
wholesale dealers have sought to estab
lish agencies for the sale of liquors in
quantities of gallon or more, without
paying the special tax. The spirit of
the decision is that for each of such
agencies the dealer will be compelled to
pay the tax of 800 or $500 as the case
may be. The immediate question at is
sue in the pleadings which were filed in
the lower court was whether the whole
sale dealers were liable to assessment
under the Dow law. The wholesale
dealers in the cases at issue claimed
that they should be assessed only $500;
that the law was unconstitutional SO
far as it relates to dealers who do not
sell in quantities less than one gallon.
The decision will close the controversy
as to 81 eases in Cincinnati alone, and a
much larger number all over the State.
Judge Owen dissented to the opinions
of the other members of the court. The
decision is in accordance with the opin
ion of the attorney general, which was
rendered on the gallon clause of the
Dow law. Mr.. Browns bill 10 the House
to make this feature Of the law more
definite. and Senate joint resolution by
Mr.. Pavey which passed that body, both
of which propose to amend the law 30 as
preuent wholesale dealers from selling
through agencies without paying the tax
will no doubt be allowed to die in their
present stage. as the decision OF the
court disposes of the necessity for such
legislation.-O. S. Journal.
